Optimization of the strength vs. conductivity trade-off in an aluminium alloy designed for laser powder bed fusion

The 6061 Al alloy in its T6 conditions is often considered a good candidate for applications requiring a good balance between strength and thermal conductivity. However, this alloy is often very difficult to process using laser powder bed fusion (PBF-LB) because of the development of hot cracks duri...
